rest of summer

Mikey met up with Diane the day after the family got home from Greece. He talked about how great of a time they had, the sites they saw and the food they ate. Diane was brought up to speed on the necklace, both how it worked and that Jon knew about it. In fact, he had tried it for a day and seemed to like it. He also told her about Ella and Alexa, and how they were acting a little different when Jon was a guy. He also told her how that when they were all girls, his mom seemed to be a little more...relaxed, going into the couple days on clothing optional beach. Diane asked a few questions, and asked Mikey how he was doing, since now he had learned he was permanently Michele. He was OK with it, since now he knew.
That summer was a little different for Mikey, in a few ways besides going to Greece. He decided to spend some longer stretches as Michele. Maybe 1 week at a time. Michele was who he was, without the necklace. He had gotten more used to being her, but still felt like he wasn't used to being her.
So, on a morning at the start of August, he took off the necklace and put in his sock drawer until school started.
His room went from his normal room, to a teenaged girls room. His bed and paint of the walls were exactly the same, but a full length mirror appeared behind his door. His closet was a bit more full of clothing with more color options and his shoes were a bit more numerous. His desk still had all his school books, but there was a small mirror and some makeup out. His pictures changed to pictures of Michele. His socks he left on the floor yesterday became ankle socks. His trophies from Mikey's karate became ones for Michele's softball. He grew a bit and his hair lengthened. His zelda night shirt changed to one with Samus. No bra covered his developing breasts. His boxers became panties under the shirt. He went to the mirror and took off his night shirt, and stared at the girl in the blue panties. She took stock of the changes. When this stated around 2 years ago, Michele and Mikey looked pretty similar, and now they looked so different. Michele cupped her breasts, which were not there when the necklace was first used. He put his hands over his hips and butt, where were wider than 2 years ago too. She went to her underwear drawer and took out a bra, and put it on without any hesitation. She put on carpis and a yellow tanktop, and went down for breakfast. Jon did a double take, but otherwise breakfast was normal.
That summer, Michele got used to wearing two piece bathing suits when they were at the pool. Davis actually asked her out once, but Michele replied that she wanted to stay friends. Most nights, either Diane would stay at Michele's or visa versa. Most evenings, the girls would watch a movie, holding hands. Michele developed an appreciation for rom-coms by the end of the summer. Diane and Michele relationship also developed too. Some nights, the girls would kiss and explore eachother.
The most interesting time of the summer came the last weekend in August when Michele went on the long weekend trip with her mother. Her mom scheduled a mother/daughter bonding weekend at a woman's only spa/retreat. They spent most of the time together, getting massages, having meals and hiking. Michele had her first mani/pedi with her mom in the next chair. Those were the enjoyable parts. At one point,the last morning, her mom came out of the shower, her hair in a towel and drying her body. After a moment, her mom wrapped a towel around herself and sat on the bed she was using. She took the towel off her red hair.
"Michele, I wanted to have some time together, woman to woman."
This peaked Michele's interest
"Remember a few years ago we talked about your body a little for the first time?"
"How could I forget?"
"Well, now that you are growing, I wanted to talk to you about a few things," Rachel said as she pulled a tampon and a pad out of the suitcase, "I know you covered this stuff in sex ed, but I wanted to make sure you had a chance to ask questions. It's hard to ask in front of the other girls."
Rachel brought up a diagram of the vagina and started to talk about use of both for a couple minutes
Michele was stunned during the lecture. Both because of the abruptness, but also that she actually would need to use them soon if she stayed Michele. She immediately wanted to put the necklace on to be Mikey, but the magical artifact was at home.
"Honey, did you want to talk about sex or masturbation at all?":
Again, Michele was surprised by the frankness of her mom. She had thought about sex while she was Mikey and Michele a little bit now. She felt more comfortable being a male sexually, but started to be curious about sex as a girl, especially with what she was doing with Diane and how good it all felt.
"It's a bit weird to talk to your mom about sex, especially when you will be talking about dad."
"Michele, I did know other men besides your father, before we got married."
Michele's mind was blown. She had just assumed that they had been together forever.
"Still weird mom."
"Well, it's just us girls here, so if you have questions, let me know. I'd rather you talk to me that look stuff up God knows where on the internet. Final question, do you have any questions about being pregnant? You won't have to worry about that for a while, but I know when I was a teenager, I started to wonder. I even put a pillow under my shirt more than once."
Michele shook her head that she had no questions.
"Then I have some final things to say. When you find a partner, make sure he or she treats you with respect. Don't take any grief from at home or work because you are a woman. You are strong, you are smart and you have something to say."
With that, her mother got up and got her outfit out for the day. She dropped the towel and was naked before getting her underwear on.

Michele felt a little uncomfortable, and took her outfit into the bathroom to get ready. She put on her outfit. Looking in the mirror, she grabbed a towel and put it under her shirt. She took it out immediately.
The mother/daughter pair went to the sauna where they both stripped down.

As her mother chatted with the other ladies, Michele wonder who had been pregnant, how many sexual partners everyone had and just was generally considering what her mother had talked about when they were in there. Afterwards, the duo showered, packed and went home. Immediately one getting into her room, Michele put on the necklace to become Mikey.
7th grade started soon after
